I would like to ask everyone: Can a boiler room be located in factories of Class A, B, or C? Of course, a fire wall or other explosion-proof separation measures can be used to separate the boiler room from such factories. Thank you!
As long as there is enough decompression area, there should be no problem.
As long as the distance from the factory building is within the safe range, it should be fine
According to the Safety Technical Regulations for Steam Boilers: Article 186 states that the boiler room shall not be connected to rooms with fire hazards of Class A, Class B, or Class C, especially those that use flammable liquids. When connected to other production buildings, it should be separated by a firewall. I wonder how everyone views this point? Is it that the boiler room cannot be located in workshops of types A, B, or C? Also, adjacent rooms cannot be of Class A, B, or C. Thank you!
Is it a Ming hot pot stove? The Building Code specifies that the fire separation distance between Class A and B workshops and boiler rooms must be no less than 30 meters, primarily to prevent sparks emitted from the boilers in those rooms from affecting the workshops. Can the fire and explosion prevention wall you have installed eliminate the impact of chimney sparks on the workshop? It’s definitely not possible; it won’t pass the safety assessment
Due to limited space, the owner asked whether it would be possible to locate the boiler room within a Class B factory building; of course, the boiler room would be separated from the factory building by firewalls. Has anyone encountered such a situation? The original Class B buildings were handled in the same way – two 4-ton boilers were placed directly inside those buildings. Is this permissible according to the regulations? According to the Safety Technical Regulations for Steam Boilers, Article 186 states that a boiler room shall not be connected to rooms of Class A or B, nor to rooms of Class C that use flammable liquids. When connected to other production buildings, it should be separated by a firewall. I wonder how everyone views this point? Is it that the boiler room cannot be located in workshops of types A, B, or C? Also, adjacent rooms cannot be of Class A, B, or C. Thank you to those with experience in this area for sharing!!!
According to the Safety Technical Regulations for Steam Boilers: Article 186 states that the boiler room shall not be connected to rooms with fire hazards of Class A, Class B, or Class C, especially those that use flammable liquids. When connected to other production buildings, it should be separated by a firewall. This sentence means that the boiler room must not be connected to rooms with fire hazards of categories A and B, or category C rooms that use flammable liquids. However, it may be connected to rooms that do not fall under categories A or B in terms of fire hazard (such as categories C, D, and E), as well as rooms where no flammable liquids of category C are used; when connected to such rooms, the partition wall between them must be a fire wall. I believe it is highly inappropriate to locate a boiler room within a Class B factory building. A boiler room is a place where sparks can be generated; although the building codes do not specify any requirements regarding this (the revised 2006 version does contain relevant provisions), the petrochemical industry standards do require a distance of at least 25 meters.

It is not very appropriate to locate the boiler room within a Class B factory building; our company’s two electric heating boilers are placed outside the fire pump room, which is safer
I think it’s better to use the building code standards to determine whether the fire separation distance meets the requirements
If the boiler room is located separately, what should be the fire separation distance according to building codes? Thank you!
The boiler room can be connected to rooms that do not fall under categories A or B in terms of fire hazard (such as categories C, D, and E), as well as to rooms where no flammable liquids of category C are used; when connected to such rooms, the partition wall between them must be a fire wall. According to the fire protection design codes for petrochemical enterprises, the safety distance is 25 m; per the building codes, it should be 30 m for Class A factories (clause 3.4.2).

6th floor: The specification states that \"when connected to other production buildings, it should be separated by a firewall,\" rather than \"when connected to such rooms, the partition wall in between should be a firewall.\" It’s other production rooms; give it a try – it should have different meanings. My project follows building codes rather than stone-related codes; if building codes are applied, what should the distance be? Thank you!
